  1. Why can't people see the reasoning behind beta builds, They are for testing purposes only & as such developers have the right to disable earlier versions. The ApexDC team are kind enough to allow the general public access to these builds, as such we ought to be grateful to be included in the testing thereof. No wonder there is no regular public opportunity to test any alpha builds, also good job the development team don't show the same attitude otherwise this wonderful client would never have got past version 0.0.1. Keep up the good work on an excellent client & don't let the moaners get on your nerves.


  2. Well i'm not sure if i remember this correctly, please correct if wrong. But in SDC, and thus naturally in ApexDC++ when segment is finished and emulation is on, you have the possibility to loose slots (read: connection is actually closed, i think), this however doesn't happen if emulation is not used...

    I am not using emulation as i like using Apex as it should be used, To be honest i never would have noticed it happening thats why i called it a quirk. Its a miniscule blip in an excelent client, but one i thought you all should be aware of


  3. It doesn't lose the connection after finishing the chunk. You're still connected to the user, and continue downloading the next chunk.

    It's not always 1MB either.

    Thats what he is getting from his end as someone else seems to start downloading from him & i then go back to the auto grant slot that he has on permanently for me.


  4. This is more a quirk than a full blown bug, but a friend pointed out to me that my client downloads in 1mb segments & loses connection after each one before starting the next segment. Is this just a 1 off or has anyone else experienced this too.


  5. Verlihub Linux if it is a big hub, PtokaX on small (lots of configure and lots of scripts) or YnHub if you are beginner :)

    I agree Verlihub on a linux system is ideal for a big hub, but if you only have a windows system Ptokax or YnHub. (Don't be scared to try Ptokax as theres plenty of help available for setting up.)


  6. I also dislike this WE DECIDED TO DO THAT AND WE DO NOT CARE IF IT HURTS YOU approach. We follow your work since early stages of PeerWeb and PeerWeb/ApexDC are chosen as official clients in our network with intention to abaondon Peerweb in favour of ApexDC.

    This is a bit of a knee jerk comment. What would be the point of these people making a client in the way you suggest. You also fail to take into account these are preview versions & as such under very active development.

    My sugestion to you would be to use patience & wait for the completed release, this will very likely be operating to everyones likeing.


  7. Have you got a direct link for the blocklist you access as i find the blocklists for the full pg2 were stopping instant messenger programs like bitwise working.

    I was using blocklist manager to make a list but i found the list in apex was a better one & transfered that to pg2.


  8. It's not a bug but a feature...

    Let me guess you have either PG2 or protowall installed...

    Yes you are right i have peerguardian installed, but the plugin works ok in version 0.1.0 but not in the new one.

    Thats the reason i thought it was a bug


  9. How do you know it doesn't see it?

    In the settings part where the interface is for the peerguardian controls it stays the same as when no plugin is installed. I even tried re-downloading the plugin incase that had been updated. As a result i have gone back to the earlier version of the client till there is a workaround. Keep up the good work on an excellent client.


  10. Looks like the new version has a problem with the peerguardian plugin.

    On the whole the new version looks better with the exception of this problem.

    i even tried a full uninstall & then a clean install but still the same problem, the new client doesn't seem to see the plugin as being there


  11. It would be nice to have the ability to name the raw comands like in dcdm, that way you can see at a glance what its for. Myself i found this to be a big plus on that client, probably find most ops who have used a selection would agree.


  12. My answer to you is if you don't like what a client does, why not use one that does what you want. Thats your choice don't moan at coders that are doing a hard job making an excelent client that the majority of us want.

    If you don't like this comment try learning coding then you can adjust the client to your specs


  13. I had gotten the client yesterday, but MSN Deleted it since it was an .exe ;)

    Its a VERY rare client. As soon as I see the person I got it from, im getting it again. :D

    Ask him to make a rar of it before sending it, that way you will get round msn seeing it as a danger


  14. Myself i found strongdc which apex is based on to have a lot of features that are common to dcdm, but i agree lua scripting would be an ideal benefit. One thing to keep in mind is not to get caught in the same trap dcdm seems to have got caught in, it was a perfect op client but the coding appears to have anchored it to a particular base client. Above all though an op client needs to be stable while being able to automatically check

    1) Clients

    2) Files for certain types

    but on the whole to fairly acurately run the hub unattended, dcdm used to achieve this pretty well


  15. I agree congatulations on geting Apex up & running. From an op who has used strong dc, dc++k, blackdc, dcdm, & icedc congratulations on a client that looks like being the rolls royce of clients, the name is very apt Apex. Waiting now with high hopes of the op version
